About the word "lucky" and the tradition, mainly focus on the following points.

1. When we post the character "福", the character "福" inside the gate can be posted upside down, which means "福到了", and the character "福" outside the gate can not be posted upside down, because the gods see "福到了", and then do not send it to you. The main door of the word of blessing has "welcome blessing" "Nafu" meaning.

2, the word can be generally from the end of the small year to start sticking, and to stick from the outside to the inside, that is, first stick the front door, and then the foyer, and then the kitchen, the warehouse and so on.
